10 Sidney Parade, Hindmarsh Island SA 5214

Sometimes incredible things start from humble footings - and it all rings true in this lightweight 1970s abode with a water-viewing deck and an island passion project in mind.

Overlooking the Lower Murray, Clayton Bay, and Goolwa North with subtle elevation and a north-facing aspect, this coastal conventional block brings quiet, weekender vibes and a casual, quirky place to land.

Yet those with vision will see so much more.

Like how the eat-in kitchen with a freestanding gas stove flows freely to the verandah and north-facing sunroom; and how its one-bedroom status can become two (as it began) given the huge room's dual doorway access.

You'll love the warm timber-slatted ceilings, the kitchen's novel skylight with trap-door closure, and the concertina door division between the living room and sunroom, giving each interconnecting space panoramic water views.

Modern comforts include 6kW of solar, a stand-alone generator, electric blinds and roller shutters, new ceiling fans throughout and split system R/C air conditioning - yet there's always a stage for retro.

Perhaps you'll simply partition the bedroom for 2-bedroom privacy, maybe you'll make plans for the detached and plumbed garage with a toilet and basin - a perfect on-site base while you renovate - or evolve it into a games room/retreat.

Maybe you'll Airbnb this nimble home with so much potential.
Pour a shandy on the deck, launch the boat off the nearby Valmai boat ramp, take the kids to Narnu Farm, or explore the island at your cruisiest leisure - with room for the car, boat, and jet skis, why not?
